A few weeks ago, my life changed dramatically. It started with severe kidney spasms that sent me to the ER, just before a scheduled neurological MRI that had to be cancelled. After being put on antibiotics, a follow-up revealed a very high PSA and a referral to a urologist for a biopsy. On Easter Sunday, I experienced severe shakes and chills, leading to another urgent care visit and a trip to the Emergency Room. My heart rate was dangerously high, and it turned out the antibiotic for my UTI wasn’t covering the bacteria I had—resulting in sepsis. I was hours away from a life-threatening situation and spent nine days in the hospital. During my stay, doctors discovered a blood clot, and I received three platelet infusions while fighting the infection. Once the infection was under control, I began preparing for cancer treatment, with many specialists involved: infectious disease, urology, and oncology. Meanwhile, I was also dealing with vertigo and double vision, which had to take a back seat to the more urgent medical issues. Recently, I had a dizzy spell and a fall, so now neurology is back in the picture to address my balance issues before starting full cancer treatment. This journey has been overwhelming, and I never expected to be in this situation. It’s highly embarrassing to ask for help, but the costs are unknown and daunting. I can cover my regular monthly expenses for now, but medical bills, transport, and living expenses may become unmanageable if I’m unable to work. If I’m able to return to work, all donations will go directly toward treatment-related expenses. Any leftover funds will be donated to cancer research. Thank you for any support you can offer. Your kindness means the world to me, and I am deeply grateful. God bless you.
